Childbirth Class!

Baby Jack will be arriving so soon I can't believe it!  We had childbirth classes this weekend, and I must say they went better than I expected.  We actually had a pretty good time!  I'm still nervous about the whole labor/delivery thing, but I feel much more at ease now that John and I are both more educated about the whole process.  

I will be 36 weeks pregnant on Tuesday.  Jack's due date is July 7- but I know he can come pretty much any time between now and July 19 until I would actually be induced if he's not here on his own.  That's such a long time span!  Everything he actually NEEDS should he arrive early is ready... but I am starting to feel like I need to have all his clothes washed, the house deep cleaned top to bottom, etc.  I have my 36 week check up this Wednesday.  At that point I will start going for weekly check ups and finding out my "progress" if you will- how dilated and effaced I am (if at all) etc.  I will also find out if Jack is in the correct position.  Please say a prayer for me that he is not breech- I am terrified of this!  I will keep you posted on how everything goes!

  1. Sweetie- rest all you can now. After Jack gets here you will forget the meaning of the word. You have had such a great pregnancy, every thing is going to be fine. Jack will be in exactly the right position- don't worry. Hope you enjoyed your dinner- it sounds delicious! Let us know how the check-up goes.
    ps. You sound like you are starting to get the "nesting" syndrom (normal too)
